Suse Weber

Suse Weber is a contemporary German artist known for her unique sculptural installations and mixed media works. Born in 1970 in Leipzig, Germany, Weber studied Fine Arts at the Städelschule in Frankfurt and at the École Nationale Supérieure des Beaux-Arts in Paris. Her work often features found objects and organic materials, exploring themes of nature, memory, and human intervention in the environment.

Suse Weber is a multidisciplinary artist who creates emblematic sculptures that reflect on societal forms and socialization. Her sculptures, which are built like building blocks, elude lasting presentation and refuse monumentalization, instead existing as orchestrated objects that resemble stages and installation parades. Weber's works are permeated with emblems and symmetry and combine industrial and self-made materials to create an aesthetic that represents industrial mass production. The sculpture's origin lies in the manifestation of power and forces the viewer into a ritual, making the viewer an actor in the choreography of forms and the ornamentally composed space that extends into the real social space. Her works pose questions that emphasize the sense of belonging, identity, and self-image while presenting a cultural critique of social equality in certain areas.
